What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on testing a cloud-hosted government web application running on AWS, covering infrastructure validation, performance and load testing, CI/CD pipeline monitoring, and disaster recovery verification. A secondary focus involves functional and accessibility testing of a Drupal CMS front-end, including USWDS theme rendering, Section 508/WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, and content migration accuracy. It suits a QA engineer with hands-on AWS and Drupal testing experience in Agile, compliance-driven environments.

Why we read it this way (10)
The clearance requirement states 'ability to obtain and/or maintain a government clearance' — the level is unspecified. Secret is assumed as the most common baseline for federal contractor roles of this type; the actual level should be confirmed with the client.
The 3–5 year experience range is stated at the role level (QA/testing experience); the overall years minimum is set to 3 (the lower bound).
Selenium is listed as 'Selenium (or similar tool)' in the required section — it is a hard gate on automated testing capability; common substitutes are captured in alternatives.
CloudFormation and Terraform appear together in the job duties narrative ('CloudFormation/Terraform') rather than in a dedicated required-qualifications block; they are marked preferred accordingly.
USWDS (U.S. Web Design System) appears in the duties and preferred context; it is marked preferred as it is not explicitly called out as a required qualification.
ATO/FedRAMP testing experience is listed under Preferred Qualifications.
AWS Certification is explicitly listed under Preferred Qualifications.
The alternative occupation runner-up (15-1254 Web Developers) reflects the meaningful Drupal CMS / USWDS front-end validation component, though the primary day-to-day work is clearly QA/testing.
Requires a Secret clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
